The principal place of business of the group is in the United Kingdom. The interim consolidated financial information is presented in the nearest thousands of pounds sterling (GBP'000), which is the presentation currency of the group.

   2.             Basis of preparation 

The interim consolidated financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2019 and 30 June 2018 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, interim Financial reporting which are unaudited and do not constitute a set of statutory financial statements.

The principal accounting policies used in preparing the interim results are the same as those applied in the Group's Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, which have been prepared in accordance with internationals financial reporting standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS"). The auditor's report on those accounts was unqualified with an emphasis of matter on going concern.

A copy of the audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2018 is available on the company's website.

Going concern

The consolidated financial information has been prepared on a going concern basis.

In considering the appropriateness of the basis of preparation, the directors have reviewed the group's working capital forecast for a minimum of 12 months from the date of the approval of these financial statements. As at 30 June 2019, the group had GBP6,833 of available cash. The company proposes to conduct further exploration activities at its Chilean projects and accordingly, will need to raise additional funds before the end of 2019 to maintain sufficient cash resources for its working capital and particularly, continue its efforts to reduce outstanding obligations.

The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate access to resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and continue to meet, as and when they fall due, its planned exploration and development activities and other liabilities for at least the next twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. For this reason, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements.

The interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was approved by the directors on 23 August 2019.

   3.             Critical accounting estimated and sources of estimation uncertainty 

In applying the accounting policies, the directors may at times be required to make critical accounting judgments and estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions, when made, are based on historical experience and other factors that the directors consider are relevant.

The key estimated and assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the financial year, that have significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are reviewed are as stated below:

   4.          Earnings per share
